If you've been following this series, you are probably aware of all of the water treading filler episodes that this series has put out. The last volume provided some actual happenings, but was a teensy bit dissapointing. This volume doesn't pick the action back up, but it does move it forward, which is still pretty good.
In this volume we discover that Sunako has been making some progress in the boys' attempts at making her a lady. She's making attempts to visit places that she'd pre...more

Sunako is acting strangely. First, she wants to go the faashionable shopping district, seemingly to take the trip she didn't take in junior high. This does not end well when the boys are recognized by their fans. Then she gets super excited about Valentine's day, but more because of the boy's chocolate than any desire for love. Finally, when she gets a an invitation to a ball to meet a prince, she diets. Could she be turning into a lady?
As if.

Synopsis: A Shōjo comedy/romance manga created by Tomoko Hayakawa. At the beginning of the manga, Sunako Nakahara confesses her love to a boy, who utterly rejects her and tells her she's ugly. As any reasonably young person would do, Sunako then discards all traces of her femininity, and retreats into odd and morbid hobbies, such as collecting skulls.
Fortunately, Sunako's aunt owns a mansion that four gorgeous boys live in (huh?). Apparently, the boys pay rent...more

When I first started the Wallflower, I felt the first 12ish volumes just felt the same. I didn't see the plot moving forward a lot, but then came volume 15 where we start seeing marked changes in Sunako and the forward movement of the plot. It's a series that gets better with time because you see the changes after things have been grinded into the readers mind. I can't stop reading this series now, it was really good before, but now its entered into 'cannot put this down!' territory.
It took 15 volumes for Sunako to get over her junior high trauma and it was getting a little old. But now that she's feeling more confident, the characters can have more interesting adventures together.
